[time-nuts] Motorola UT+ Interface Board

2012-08-13 Thread dropkick23
Does anyone have a source for UT+ interface boards?
Like the McKinney boards from TAPR  (that are no longer available).
Kit or assembled is OK

Thank You

I hand wired one using a 4x6 inch prototype board.   It is not very complex.

The best why to do the TTL to RS-232 conversion is with this little
device you can find on eBay that is a MAX232 chip built into a DB9
shell

If you have not seen one here is a good example.  They make it easy.

But I think I had to add a jumper to get the PPS signal onto the DCD pin.
 Also the PPS needs to be inverted if I remember correctly.
